Some anesthesia options override the normal expectations of carbon dioxide, during surgery. This leads to further head pressure or lack of fluid flow with cerebrospinal fluid and blood, as well as having too much carbon dioxide, which is also a danger.

They found ketamine with dexmedetomidine was a better choice than using isoflurane.

This was in a rat mode, but I would think it could be a current choice, if the anesthesiologist thought it was okay, and knew about this study.

Ketamine is the anesthetic of choice when concern about depressing autonomic function exists. I was given it for a pneumothorax. It’s also trippy as hell.
